So Roger is going to sell his last one that was suppose to be a demo? Saw it last year when I bought mine and he was incorporating all the changes he has made over the last 10 or 11 cars.

I'm lost. Rodney wants another Cobra? Or is he just buying the Exact for the magnesium wheels?

Rodney, you holding out on us?

gsharapa - I guess it was/is supposed to be a demo but I believe he'd sell to an interested party...

Rodknock - The Autokraft is in it's new home in England and the garage is looking so empty...and the Kirkham so lonely (if it's even real, right patrickt? You're confusing me with Evan. He has a Real1 )

BTW, the hype about EXACT is well earned. It's certainly properly named. I went to look at the car as a roller. That Cobra is really, really nice! The details are superb and that motor sounds like a Prius owner's nightmare. There's so few Exacts I felt I had to take the opportunity to see it. So I took the long route to work, so what?

patrickt - How could you doubt your ONLY CC friend? Just for that I'm not installing your 'Patrickt Approved' laser beam headlights or chaser lights around my license plate. One more comment outa you and the dressing room style vanity mirror goes too.
BTW, have you considered stick on passenger rollbars? You could sell them at Pep Boys!

PS - The coolest part about this hobby aside from the cars is the people. I'm sure it's been said a thousand times before but it's true. John's been there and back. Fighter jets, race cars and Cobras! We had a nice talk at lunch and I had a great time. He also called to see I got home ok. Class act! Thanks again for your time, John!

Why not buy John's red Exact? I believe it's for sale.

I'm thinking about my next "project" too.

I need to put less miles on the Kirkham.

:
Speaking of stick ons... I've taken some grief over my use of black tape to hold on the roll bar padding. After years of sun and wind, it started to look a little ratty. I stumbled upon "low profile" zip ties that don't have that big clunky square box where the zip end goes through, so I repadded the bars and used these low profile zip ties. What do you think?
